Profile: Octavio comes from the Latin "Octavius," meaning "eighth." Dotel started 2010 with the Pirates, his eighth team. Coincidence? Probably, yes -- especially as the reliever proceeded to play with his ninth and 10th teams (the Dodgers and Rockies, respectively) before the season was over. At the end of December, Dotel signed with his 11th team, the Toronto Blue Jays, for whom he may, or may not, close games in 2011. Though one can't say for sure why Dotel's gotten around so prolifically, here's a theory, at least: his ground-ball rate of 31.8% since 2002 (i.e. for as long as such numbers are available) is one of the lowest in the Majors over that stretch. That leaves Dotel open to conceding homers -- and, hence, runs -- in bunches. Fantasy owners have to deal with the same concerns, especially as Dotel enters a hostile division and home park.

The Quick Opinion: Insofar as he'll be closing games for Toronto, he'll be valuable. Fly-ball-heavy approach makes him susceptible to homers, runs.

Profile: After stops in Toronto and St. Louis in 2011, Octavio Dotel’s all-expenses paid tour of Major League Baseball takes him to Detroit in 2012. The 38-year-old on his sixth team in three years is still dominant against right-handed batters, and his high strikeout rate -- 10.33 last season, and 10.91 over his career -- can give him fantasy value, but it would take a lot for him to garner saves.

Profile: Dotel turned 84 this off-season (ok, actually 39, but it feels like 84, doesn't it?) and saw a slight decrease in his strikeout rate last year. But he also posted a career best 1.86 walks per nine and put up an overall great season. Besides, when that K/9 decrease leaves you at over 9.5, it's hard for a fantasy owner to complain. I wouldn't want to count on Dotel if I need saves, but in a holds league, a league that rewards either saves or holds, or a league where you can afford a save-less reliever, he could be a nice add at a low price. (Chad Young)

The Quick Opinion: Need saves from your relievers? Don't waste your time here. But a strike out per inning with good rates can go a long way.

Profile: Dotel pitched in only 4 2/3 innings in 2013 due to an elbow injury. Though he was serviceable in 2012, he hasn’t had an impact season since, well, ever. Add a significant elbow injury to a 40-year-old mediocre relief pitcher, and the results probably won't be kind. Dotel was always a strikeout pitcher, but his high walks constantly hurt his value.
